How on earth is healthcare insurance a right? I have a hard time following the logic that people have a right to not pay the full cost of their medical bills.

Insurance is insurance. The provider is taking a risk that you will not cost them a ton of money. They make their money based on premiums paid from low risk policy holders. If the company is of the opinion that you are to much of a risk, then they will not insure you, or make your premiums so expensive that you can't afford it.

It's like a parachute. You get one when you don't need it, because if you need it and you don't have it, you can't get it.

You obviously do not excel in reading an entire post.

Had you read the entire post you would have found the logic you cannot follow so look at yourself first.

I wrote: You have a right to buy or not buy health care, well you did until we allowed Washington to once again violate the Constitution.

I also wrote they you do not have the right to have someone pay for your insurance.

People constantly use the ignorant phrase, "well I read the constitution and I don't see a RIGHT for xyz"

What on Gods green earth makes anyone other than a brain dead liberal think the founders could have enumerated every fricken right?

Good grief civics 101
